CSS for beginners
Thursday, October 19th, 2006CSS stands for Counter Strike Source, an addictive multi-player First Person Shooter (FPS). When you first play CSS it might seem a bewildering game, however with my guide you will be a top notch CSS player in no time.
Definitions
noob/newbie/n00b - someone who is new to the game. Generally n00b is considered a harsher term than noob
skillz - like skills but cooler
HAX - short for Hacks, refers to tools that make playing the game easier for the player eg by saving them the trouble of aiming
flash - short for flashbang, a type of grenade that stuns and blinds players
camping - staying in one spot, often hidden
Rules
1. Everyone else who plays CSS is a n00b by definition and should be treated as such. Even if this is the first time you have played CSS, your skillz ensure that you are a much better player. Lord it over them.
2. Every time someone kills you, make sure you yell HAX!!!!11. Following on from Rule 1, anyone who kills you must be hacking, because they are a n00b and are no match for your mad skillz.
How to be popular in CSS
- Use flashes liberally, particularly around team mates, they love the challenge
- Make sure you stop at choke points, blocking your team mates from getting past
- Follow your team mates extremely closely to make sure that they don’t chicken out and retreat
- If you have a microphone, use it as much as possible, singing is especially appreciated
- Everyone loves a sniper
- When you join the game make sure you are joining the winning side, nobody likes a loser
- At all costs, protect yourself even at the expense of the team, you aren’t much use to them if you are dead
- camping is a great way to show off those skillz
